Re: being robbed by neighboring hive

Yep, do what you can, and do it right now!

I got lucky they had just started when we had four days of solid rain, no bees flew at all. But I still made the strong hive feel weaker, and closed the entrance right down as small as I could get away with on the weak hive. That was near two weeks ago now, and still all good, so you can break them of it.....
